weird key hole
i was putting a hitch on my truck yesterday and saw a cap over something next to my license plate on the right side. opened it up and its for a key. what is it for. at first i thought it was for locking the tailgate but that has a lock right on it.

I'm not familiar with this year f150 but i've seen it on other cars and i bet it's for the spare tire winch, you put in the key and take it out (it's a plug) and it allows you to put in the crank arm to lower down the spare tire.
